The dockable panels
SOLIDWORKS Electrical
uses specific panels to help you in your schematic design. These dockable
panels can be placed on the right or on the left of the screen.
The dockable panels contain different tabs, associated to a specific
icon. These tabs can be moved from a dockable panel to the other
using the drag-and-drop method.
The tab display is managed manually for most of them, using the View menu (Dockable
panels section) commands. Some of them are opened automatically
such as the Command tab or Cabinet layout tab.
